--- Comment #10 from Mage <mage at mage.gold> ---
If I delete /usr/local/etc/instance_configs.cfg on test1, and reboot the
machine, the problem gets solved. It’s weird for a few reasons:

1. 
The file says: 
"Do not edit this file directly. If you need to add
# items to this file, create or edit
# /usr/local/etc/instance_configs.cfg.template"

2. 
There is no /usr/local/etc/instance_configs.cfg.template file.

3. Before I deleted the file, I checked its modification date, and it seemed it
was generated at the last boot.

-rw-r--r--  1 root   wheel   1299 Jul  8 19:30 instance_configs.cfg


4. 
Although there is no /usr/local/etc/instance_configs.cfg.template file, there
are two others:

-rw-r--r--  1 root   wheel    522 Jul  5 08:48 instance_configs.cfg.distro
-rw-r--r--  1 root   wheel    522 Jul  5 08:48
instance_configs.cfg.distro.sample

And the content of these files is correct. 

test1 before delete and reboot:

root at test1 /usr/local/etc # md5 instance_configs.cfg*
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg) = 7ac0b2a92b082fde5ec55d5183472db1
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg.distro) = 1fe870481fd1c6568e1564408f620569
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg.distro.sample) = 1fe870481fd1c6568e1564408f620569


test2:
root at test2 /usr/local/etc # md5 instance_configs.cfg*
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg) = 921a4751023351ee709eeb7df53992f6
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg.distro) = 1fe870481fd1c6568e1564408f620569
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg.distro.sample) = 1fe870481fd1c6568e1564408f620569

test1: after delete and reboot:
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg) = 857d6d4a96ac7d577c9b66bc15156776
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg.distro) = 1fe870481fd1c6568e1564408f620569
MD5 (instance_configs.cfg.distro.sample) = 1fe870481fd1c6568e1564408f620569

I’m not sure where it comes from, and why it wasn’t properly overwritten
without deleting it first.
